I know what happens now. Seems gdb need unstripped libc-2.3.2.so or 
other important libs. The libs in my device rootfs are stripped so it 
can't get the backtrace properly. After changing solib-absolute-prefix 
to another unstripped version , the gdb can work now...

Something weird is that why manully start prog by gdbserver can get the 
right result...
